Oh so You also having same Problem like me
Any one else have same Problem or Only me and JJEgan?
I would just use ODIN guys. If your phone is branded then Kies will only show the update that is relevant to that provider, not the latest update. And even if it does show the latest update I have read about issues trying to apply the update.
ODIN is far easier, just read up about it.
The software update check in settings/about phone works fine for me as long as you have a Samsung account, thought at the moment it just says "no update available"
What i posted should be read >>>as far as i am aware nobody on SGS2 or even SGS1 gets an update via that method as its not turned on by Samsung for firmware updates .
jjue
I want to know is will Kies show even software updates? ..I have samsung account but it say's Processing when I click sign in and after that is says Processing failed.
i had a similar problem

A firmware update on phone >>> void does not work never worked Samsung have not turned it on ever .
Kies updates firmware if the phones product code has later firmware updated by the phone vendor as always .

Oh,Samsung Never turned it on..Ok 1 More question there was a Camera Update once recently right? for that type of updates I need to login to samsung or Kies will show it or it will show up normally like update of YouTube,Angry Birds? I am sure that Update is already installed in my mobile bcoz Letsbuy got stock on 9th ( Before that only camera update released)

Currently on KE2, I get an alert telling me there is a new firmware available from Kies, but then will not allow me to update ('This version of the device cannot be updated').
Can anyone else check if there is an update available? Thanks.

hello,
When I looked into Kies today, I see that the "Firmware upgrade" option is disabled.
My phone is a unbranded and i have not installed any custom firmware or root
Any idea why this is disabled?
I could not get the answers in forum nor in google (used search already)
thank you
I had a few times. Rebooted the PC and restarted the phone, then start Kies and connect the phone normally fixes it.
Does Kies see your phone ???

I have the same product code and the option isn't greyed out but it always tells me that the KE2 firmware is the most recent and that there is no new update at the moment. There doesn't seem to be a button the MAKE it search. My Kies version is the most recent, too (something.99 at the end).

tried reinstalling / rebooting both pc and mobile but still its grayed out. The stock firmware sucks battery like anything. Want to know if Samsung has given any update.
Yes I can flash many ROMS available But they are too confusing. I dont want to update my mobile CSC or anything so I dont void the warranty
Any suggestions on easy way of updating?
That's true official firmware are providing too old versions with battery issues. Since, kf2 modem version, I can use my phone all a day and if I pay attention of data usage (3G / edge mainly) I can use my phone during the whole week end without charge battery again. This is why I recommand to switch to custom rom and to buy USB jib to reset Odin flash counter and to help you in case of brick...
Why the hell they don't release the newer firmware versions on KIES!?
I'm also still stuck on the KE2!
Samsung have released its the phone providers that have not updated to Kies ,Their choice .

Hi Guys,
Yesterday, I bought my phone. DO we really need to connect to PC via Skies to upgrade the phone firmware? Cannt we do over the air using software update option? I can see software update option in phone under Menu and you need to specify your samsung account details as well.
Any idea...

This usually happens when you're not online or for some reasons Kies cannot connect to Samsung's servers.
This also happens under Windows 8, regardless whether online or offline - I'm still investigating this.
Hi everyone. Today i updated new version of Kies 2.0.3.1182_152. I tried several official firmwares, but Kies says 'S/W in your phone is not the official version. Unofficial version cannot be updated... Does anyone know what to do?
Yes, flash the official firmware and hard reset the device

maybe you forgot to set the proper country code (csc) in the dialer type *#272*your imei# then choose the country you got the phone in. take note you must use your original country's firmware.

But I think on Android devices, in most cases fault is not belong to Samsung, but to Google (Android Dev Team)...For example..I still have a wifi problem...Even in Service Center it couldnt be solved..They dont know what is the problem...I thought i am the only one that have wifi problem but not, look at this...http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1386#makechanges...From here is known that most problems is Android faults...
(My Wi-Fi problem is..in this days i have noticed a problem with my Samsung Galaxy S II.
Sometimes I have the gsII connected to my router but internet connection doesn't work.
I'll try to explain better what i mean... I start wifi on my gsII and use internet connection without problem. Then I set the phone in standby mode leaving wifi on. When after a while i want to use internet connection, it doesn't work. The telephone is still connected to my router but i can't use internet on the phone.
The only way to make internet connection work is to disable wifi e then reactivate it.
This is really frustrating....
I've got the telephone from three months but only now I'm noticing this problem because first I used to disable the wifi and activate it only when i need it.)

Unchek the USB Debug ( Menu->Settings->Applications->Development ) mode and try again. This will solve the Kies error message.

Hey guys! I am having this same issue. I got an update from Vodafone Spain and it gave me many errors, (2.3.6) and battery life was not as good. So I downloaded the original firmware, and now KIES doesn't recognize it. So I tried this method and it only says "ATL" on it, and then... Oh shucks! Here's a screen shot.
I downloaded it from sammobile.com and it says
I9100BUKE5 ## EXT4.PIT 2.3.3 2011 May DOWNLOAD
CSC is blank. But that's the version I had, and also:
http://hotfile.com/dl/120766439/6afee0e/I9100_VDF_I9100BUKE5.rar.html
That's my carrier. But the CSC on my phone says ATL. I don't know what this means, but now KIES won't recognize its version anymore .... Any ideas?
Update: Vodafone Spain is ATL! OK... So it reads it fine, but .... why can't KIES recognize the firmware?
Thanks
Hey everyone...last night I tried messing around with some Samsung official ROMs and some really weird things happened...:
I tried a Android 2.3.6 ROM (from a Samsung Firmware page) - it kept enabling/disabling my SIM card constantly.
I tried a Europe (general Europe I guess), it kept restarting my phone on start-up (boot loop).
I installed back my Vodafone (Spain) 2.3.5 ROM but now Samsung Keys says this device cant be updated trough it! (before I started messing around with it, it used to say "no new updates found").
Originally my idea was to have a Samsung stock ROM that is not carrier-based (Europe region though of course).
But now that I'm having a "white circle in the lower-left of the screen" problem I also need to keep my Vodafone ROM installed.
Any idea how to fix the "cant update trough Kies" problem? =/
Thanks in advance.
P.S. I took a look on the Stock ROMs posted here on XNA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278)...any recommendation for a generic Europe ROM?
Anyone?
I'd like to know this too. Im on Vodaphone UK and after flashing the carrier branded firmware from these forums (BUKJ3) the same as i had out of the box i can no longer update with Kies.

KIES is fussy and often fails to recognize flashed firmware .
Codes don't match on KIES server any firmware is why .

I've managed to do it in end. Here's what I did:
Go here: http://fus.nanzen.se/ and download version 2.1 of the PC program.
Use the PC program to get the firmware for your device/carrier.
Use Odin to install the firmware and then enter recovery mode (Up-Volume key + Home key + Power key while turning on) and format your Data.
That solved the problem for me and now Kies allows me to update the device again like before. ^_^

There is no Marshmallow yet. And Kies doesn't work anymore, you can use Smart Switch now, to update or restore phone.

Because there is no update. When it comes you will have notification in the middle of Smart Switch right where is model of your phone shown.
